Uncharted 4 gives fans a greater look at Drake’s family, past, and future and delivers some of the franchise’s best moments and set pieces. With the Nathan Drake Collection on PS4 and Uncharted 4 recently becoming a Greatest Hits title, there’s never been a cheaper and more convenient way to play through the entire series for the first or seventh t
Despite still being in beta, Red Dead Online is being kept updated with new modes at regular intervals. Rockstar Games’ latest update brought with it the game mode Plunder . Players have to make the riskiest of supply runs to a location stacked with goods to outfit their team’s base. However, particularly bold players can raid the opposing team’s base for supplies instead of going to this location, lending an erratic air to the proceedings. Plunder excels when players have a coordinated team going for supply runs to both locations at the same t
During the starting point of Red Dead Redemption 2 , Arthur states that John recently left the gang for about a year. This is repeatedly brought up especially when talking about the rift between John and Arthur, the question is why. What is it that drove him to that point. John has apparently left the gang before, but never for long, until then. There is more to this story than meets the eye, that will hopefully be explained in the next Red Dead installm
Rockstar games hasn’t let people down since it first entered the mainstream with 2001’s Grand Theft Auto III , which ignited a revolution within the industry, shattering sales records and becoming as influential to video game design as it was controversial. Since that seminal release, the studio has continued to top themselves with each new project. The company’s most recent release, Red Dead Redemption 2 , improved upon Grand Theft Auto V in almost every
Most would assume being a bandit since the age of 11 would involve all kinds of daring getaways and escapes. Including running, jumping, maybe even swimming. Yet as it turns out John Marston never learned to swim. Arthur can swim, Dutch can swim, most of the entire camp can swim even Jack appears to be an able swimmer, but it just never happened for John. Did John believe this skill simply wasn’t beneficial or was he never given the chance to learn? There is some explaining that needs to be done h
_ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ places a careful amount of emphasis on how Dutch treats Molly throughout the game. Whenever she has a potential mission, Dutch always supersedes her. He ignores her and even belittles her a bit in spite of how much she loves him. When she ultimately rats out the gang, it frankly only makes se
An ongoing conversation for consumers is the value derived from a $60 purchase of a game. Though value is a personal conclusion, there’s no denying that Persona 5′ s 100+ hours will give you the most bang for your b
Dan Houser’s writing ability improves with each script, so there’s no reason to believe Grand Theft Auto VI won’t continue this trend. RDR2 really went miles ahead of GTA V with its plot. The western is a serious, somber tale about redemption, while Trevor, Michael, and Franklin’s tale is more come
It’s a neat idea, but it breaks the pacing of missions and grows tiresome after watching the animation for the hundredth time. GTA VI shouldn’t even think about adopting a similar mechanic. It would be like having to worry about gas in a car’s t
Very few games have seen the critical praise that Red Dead Redemption 2 received just prior to its release in 2018. Once it was in the hands of players there was a strong divide between people who loved every moment of the lush and deep Open world games Release date-world Western experience, and others who felt the controls and slow pace made it feel antiquated and unpolis
The next GTA doesn’t need to get as dour as Arthur Morgan’s tale, but a black comedy can still have award-worthy dialogue and scenarios. One area that can still be improved upon is the heavy-handedness with which its themes are conveyed. Players are smart enough to understand subtext without having it banged over their he
Unfortunately, it actually contradicts rather important information from the first game where John claimed he hadn’t seen Dutch since he left the game. Clearly, this mission takes place long after that fact. Either way, it’s an interesting narrative beat even if it doesn’t make sense. Plus, it directly ties itself into the first game once the credits are thro
It’s as if Red Dead Redemption 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive met in the middle and tried creating a child. It fails at times thanks to awkward controls, but it promises a great time regardl
There’s more to detail than inside environments too. If weather had an effect on the city, or parts of it were destructible, it would go along way towards making it feel alive. A Shenmue level of realism isn’t expected, but it should strive for something more than what it has done in the p
